Description

Built upon the success of spectrum of conferences within the
IEEE World Congress on Services
, the Security and Privacy Engineering (SPE 2014) workshop is a unique place to
exchange ideas of engineering secure systems in the context of service
computing, cloud computing, and big data analytics. The emphasis on engineering
in security and privacy of services differentiates the workshop from other
traditional prestigious security and privacy workshops, symposiums, and
conferences. The practicality and value realization are examined by
practitioners from leading industries as well as scientists from academia.

In line with the engineering spirit, we solicit original papers on building
secure service systems that can be applied to government procurement, digital
medical records, cloud environments, social networking for business purposes,
multimedia application, mobile commerce, education, and the like. Potential
contributions could cover, but are not limited to, methodologies, protocols,
tools, or verification and validation techniques. We also welcome review papers
that analyze critically the status of current Security and Privacy (S&P) in
a specific area. Papers from practitioners who encounter security and privacy
problems and seek understanding are also welcome.

Topics of interests of SPE 2014 include, but are not limited to:

List of Topics

S&P Engineering of Service-Based Applications

Security Engineering of Service Compositions

Paper Submission

Authors are invited to submit full papers (about 8 pages)
or short papers
(about 4 pages) as per IEEE 8.5 x 11 manuscript
guidelines (download
Word templates
or
LaTeX templates
).
The submitted papers can only be in the format of PDF or WORD. Please follow
the IEEE Computer Society Press Proceedings Author Guidelines to prepare your
papers, respectively. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to
attend the workshop and present the paper.
All papers must be submitted via
the confhub submission system for the SPE workshop (TBD)
.

First time users need to register with the system first (see
these instructions
for details). All the
accepted papers by the workshops will be included in the
Proceedings of
the IEEE 10th World Congress on Services (SERVICES 2014)
which
will be published by IEEE Computer Society.
